Whole Blood Transcriptomic Analysis of Sickle Cell Trait

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sickle cell trait (SCT) is the heterozygous carrier state for the HBB missense variant which causes sickle cell disease (SCD). SCT has been associated with increased risk of venous thromboembolism and chronic kidney disease as well as alterations in clinical laboratory parameters. To investigate differential gene expression in SCT, we used RNA

Outbreak of poisoning by sodium hydrogen methylarsonate (MSMA)—an arsenic‐based herbicide—in horses in Brazil

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Arsenic poisoning in horses is rarely reported in the literature. However, arsenic compounds can be present in rodenticides, pesticides, and herbicides, representing a potential source of accidental exposure for horses. Objective To describe the epidemiological, clinical, and laboratory findings from a herd of 31 horses exposed to ...

Extracellular matrix and proteolysis: mechanisms driving irreversible changes and shaping cell behavior

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Irreversible ECM proteolysis by remodeling enzymes shapes development, homeostasis, and disease. ECM‐degrading proteases display cell specificity and are governed by shared mechanisms, exhibiting functional redundancy in generating matrikines, growth factors, and cytokines.

Increased C‐reactive protein is associated with corneal nerve loss and painful neuropathic symptoms in Type 2 diabetes mellitus

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
Higher circulating C‐reactive protein, a marker of systemic inflammation, is associated with reduced corneal small nerve fiber density in individuals with Type 2 diabetes mellitus. Among participants with diabetic peripheral neuropathy, CRP levels are highest in those reporting positive neuropathic symptoms such as burning, painful cold, or electric ...

Achilles tenocytes from diabetic and non diabetic donors exposed to hyperglycemia respond differentially to inflammatory stimuli and stretch

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Scheme depicting the experimental set up of the study. Achilles tendons and tenocytes were isolated from heterozygous (fa/+, non diabetic: non DMT2) and homozygous (fa/fa, diabetic: DMT2) Zucker Diabetic Fatty (ZDF) rats. Tendon degeneration, collagen type 1 alpha 1 chain (COL1A1) and alpha smooth muscle actin (αSMA) expression was determined in rat ...

The urinary albumin‐to‐creatinine ratio can direct personalized prevention and treatment for cardiovascular and chronic kidney disease

Journal of Internal Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Increased urinary albumin excretion is a strong predictor for cardiovascular events in persons with and without decreased glomerular filtration rate and can be assessed with the urinary albumin‐to‐creatinine ratio (UACR), which is a selective, sensitive, and convenient method for patients.

Porphyromonas gingivalis GroEL accelerates abdominal aortic aneurysm formation by matrix metalloproteinase‐2 SUMOylation in vascular smooth muscle cells: A novel finding for the activation of MMP‐2

Molecular Oral Microbiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Infection is a known cause of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), and matrix metalloproteases‐2 (MMP‐2) secreted by vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) plays a key role in the structural disruption of the middle layer of the arteries during AAA progression.
